BAncsoit's WSrks.

The aand volume of Bancroft. works deals with the history of Brit. ish Columbia. We have much to learn from our English sister. Her schooling should be instructive for us, to encourage us where we are right and learn us where we are wrong. The history of British Col umbia is probably less known to Americans than that of any other di. vision of the Pacific coast. But that it is any less interesting than that of more southern regions is not true. such rsmances as attach to sunny lands are unknown to it, but a more rugged romance is woven with the story. It is that of adventure, the conquest of nature in its stronger holds and under more adverse condi- lions than met the pioneers of more southern shores. The volume before us opens with summary of the ear Hest voyages to the coast and follows the chain of historic facts through the six eras that distinctively mark the history of British possessions on the Pacific. From beginning to end it is fascinating as well as instruct. i've story.

Enjoy Life.

What 2 truly beautiful world we live in l Nature gives us grandeur of moun- tains, glens and oceans, and thousands of means of enjoyment. We can de- sire no better when in perfect health but how often do the majority of peo. pie feel like giving 1t up disheartened, discouraged and worn out with disease, when there is no occasion for this feel. ing, as every sufferer can easily obtain satisfactory proof, that Gyeen's Aggzss Fowey, will make them free from dis ease, as when born. Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint are the direct causes of seventy-fve per cent. of such mala- dies as Bilisusness, Indigestion, Sick Headache, Csstiveness, Nervous Pres. tration, Dizziness of the Head, Palpi. tation of the Heart, and other distress ing symptoms. Three doses of Assysf F2owey will prove its wonderful effect. Sample bottles, 10 cents. Try it.

New Railroad ArrnnSo,uspts,

It is understood that general mana. ger, Sands, ofthe Atlantic and Pacif. ic railroad has issued an order which IS to take effect this week consolida-
 ting the present three divisions of the Atlantic and Pacific into two. A, present the divisions are from Albu- querque to Winslow, from Winslow to the Needles and from the Needles to Mohaye. The terminal points of the A. & P. division Of the Santa fe sys. tenn will now be Albuquerque on the east and Barstow west. Barstow is 70 miles east of Mohaye and is the point of junction with the Santa Fe line running to Los Angeles and San Diego. The through line will now be over this road instead of go. Ing on to Mohave as heretofore. The main line of the A. '& P. being shor. tened 70 miles by the divergence of the through trains to Los Angeles and San Diego branches, as a measure of economy the three divisions existing hitherto will be consolidated and re- duced to two, and as Williams is the central depot between Albuquerque and Barstow, that was naturally the place to make the dividing point. Williams is 378 miles from Barstow, and 367 miles from Albuquerque. Thus 1t will be seen that the actual center sfthe mileage oi the whole dis. tance IS 5H miles east of Williams de. pot. In many respects Flagstaff would have been q better point from the fact of being . much larger place and also being the junction of the Mineral Belt road. But if Flagstaff had been made the end of the divisions the western division would have been s7 miles longer than the eastern and that was, sf course, an insuperable objec- ton.

et- rasriek's Day.

Thursday next Is St. 'Patrick's day, holiday that is becoming almost a, generally observed as those which are strlctly national, not only in this, but in other countries, for Irishmen are found everywhere, and wherever he i, he must celebrate the day which com. nemoratcs the death of his patron saint. His way of celebrating is about as vague as the circumstances sur rounding the life and death of St. Patrick, who was a Scotchnan or 2 Frenchman, it isn't certain which, and who lived some time during the fifth century, and after converting Ireland to Christianity and driving all the reptiles from the island, died on March 7th of some year, but it is not known when. Proces>ions, music and 4 general holiday, liberally moistcned with whiskey is the usual way in which St. Patrick is comme,noraled in the states. Out here the day will not be forgotten, but the celebration will be confined principally to drinking to the memory sf the good old saint, who, wherever he came from or wher- ever he died, will always be the ob- ject of an Irishman's devotion. In the evening of the day a ball will be given at the Grand Army Hall. This will be an appropriate conclusion to the day and every arrangement will be made to ensure good dance and an enjoyable time.

Frontier Fighting.

There is trouble at Nogales be-
 tween the Mexicans and Americans.
 As every one knows, the tswn is on
 the border between Mexico and the
 United States, portions of the town
 being in both countries. On the night of March 4th some Mexican
 soldiers came over to the prison on the American side and demanded the
 release of Mexican who was in jail.
 The sheriff and his deputies refused
 and this lead to fight, during which the prisoner was rescued, when the Mexieans were driven back across the border and one of them seriously, if not fatally, shot. Two troops of cavalry under command of Captains Dorst and Lawton were .ssent from Fort Huachacha, with orders from General Miles to protect the citizens, but on no account to scross over into Old Mexico.
 On hearing of the affair, Governor Torres with his staff at once left Her. mosillo and proceeded to Nogales. Torres, who is an educated gentle man. is highly indignant at the action of the local authorities. Upon hear. ing that Sensr Vasquez, chief of the Mexican police, had been discharged from his position for refusing to take a hand against the Americans, he was immediately reinstated by the governor and ordered to take as many men AS he required to find Lieutenant Gutierrez and bring him in and turn him over to the United States authorities. The chief imme- diately dispatched ten men on horse. back, fully armed, to SCOUT the coun- try, with instructions to bring him in dead or alive. This will end all further trouble.

 C. C. Pursley, representing Messrs.
 Hardy X Co.,, the extensive butchers of San Diego, has been in town dur ing the week for the purpose of buy ing mutton sheep for the Southern California market. He wants to purchase about ten car loads. Mir. Pursley, who is we'll known here, having been formerly Tn the employ of the Arizona Cattle company, says the sheep of this region are much preferable to those of Southern Cali fornia and Arizona, and if our sheep growers would fatten them for the California market they could dispose of any quantity. MT. Pursley left here for Winslow, to see what he could find among the sheep men there. His visit is little late, as large number of our sheep men have already contracted for the disporal of their marketable animals.
 |while the defeat of the bill for the creation of Frisco county is to be re- gretted, the citizens of Flagstaff are to be congratulated on the successful passage ofthe bill exempting the Flag staff and Grand Canon railroad from taxation for period of six years from the date of It's completion. The bill has passed both branches of the legis- ture and has become law. While this road IS being built hundreds of thou sands of dollars will be expended in and around Flagstaff for labor sup. plies, etc., and every business man in the town will reap more or less bene- ft. When the road is completed hun dreds of people will pass through here every week to visit the Grand Canon and when the hotel is built --the con- struction of which is now arranged for--many of these tourists will stop over in this place to visit the surround ing attractions and to see the metrop. oils of Arizona. Flagstaff has q great future before it and every one should strive to help 1t forward and to help those who are trying to help us.

MURDERED AND cREmArED.
A Wealthy Sheep man Is Killed and his
 Body Earned in hts Cabin.

l A horrible murder was committed on Saturday last at the ranch of MT
 Lacky, welll known sheep man
 which is situated near Buffalo springs | New Mexico. MT. Lacky is vel
 known in Flagstaff, he having spen
 considerable time here last fall wher
 it will be remembered he purchased 2 considerable number of thoroughbred
 Merino rams from Messrs. Dagg: Bros. and Co.
 Early on Saturday morning dense volume of smoke was seen issuing from the location of Lacky's cabin by his nearest neighbours but they seem to have taken the matter coolly. They state that they thought the cab in was on fire and that MT. Lack } would soon make his appearance among them but as he did not ccme some people from Buffalo springs, the nearest settlement, went out to the ranch next morning to sec what was the matter.
 About two hundred yards from the ruias of the cabin they found the dead body of a man named Tessier who had been Lacky's partner. He was shot in the back and had fallen on his face as if running from some foe who wss pursuing him from the direction of the cabin.
 No traces could be then found of MT. Lacky and as the remains of the cabin were still on fire search could not be made there at once. Later in the day when the debris was removed the charred remains of Lacky were found underneath with evidences that he was murdered before the cabin was set on fire.
 MT. Lacky was wealthy. He had over 10000 sheep on his ranch, and opinion seemed to prevail that he usu- ally had considerable money about his place and the suppssition is that plunder was the motive for the crime. The probabilities arc that Tessier was nor present when the robbery and murder was committed but appearing upon the scene before the .vilii ans had completed their work he was pursued and shot down as he was endeavoring to get away and give an alarm.
 Later evidence shows that Lacky was killed by being sho, and the house fired to destroy evidences of the crime. A neighborlng ranchman states that he eheard six shots in the neighborhood of the cabin and afterwards saw four Mexicans riding away from the place.
